This book and its companion, the Monocotyledons, are THE required books for all professionals who need a reference to identify wetland plants in the southeast. It is not a book for the hobby naturalist unless they are prepared for the technical terms and presentation. It is not a "field guide" but an office reference for indentifying plants collected in the field. It is worth the price if you identify plants for a living. Buy the Monocotyledons as well.

American and International Aquaculture Law.......2001-02-15
This is an outstanding and much needed book. There is so much confusion between federal, state, local, and international aquaculture laws, which usually contradict one another. This industry is as old as time and is the misunderstood poor cousin of the agriculture industry, often lost and forgotten, and yet is the fastest growing segment of the agriculture industry. There are still outdated colonial ordinances that effect beach front and other seemingly unrelated topics, but which are still in use today. McCoy's book untangles the web of aquaculture regulations and gives a clear and coherent overview of issues facing the industry. It is a relief to finally see a book that covers the important topics we have been struggling with for years, it is the only book of its kind!!!

Book Description
After saving Earth from the threat of V'Ger, James T. Kirk is called again to the final frontier. His new mission: to lead a valiant group of settlers to a distant world, to defend the struggling colony from alien threats, and to explore the diverse mysteries and dangers of a strange new Earth!
Far from the Federation, a newly discovered M-class world has been eyed as a potential home by a group of hardy and determined colonists. Starþeet can spare only one starship to escort the would-be settlers on their perilous voyage, but that ship is none other than the legendary Starship Enterprise, commanded by the most well-known captain in the quadrant. Now Kirk finds himself responsible for the lives of 30,000 men, women, and children -- a task that grows all the more difficult when the expedition is caught in the middle of an ancient feud between two dangerous alien races!
Download Description
The "Starship Enterprise" has embarked on its most ambitious assignment yet. Its new five-year mission is to lead a courageous band of settlers to a far-off planet, and to unravel the enigmatic riddles of a brand new Earth.

Not one of Diane Carey's Better Books.......2007-05-10
When Gene Roddenberry first proposed Star Trek to the networks he tried to get them to 'buy' into the series by saying it was going to be a type of space-western, a "Wagon Train to the Stars". And from this comes the title of Carey's book. Unfortunately, as one who likes many of her other titles, I have to say I was less impressed by this one.
The reason I like the old series of books is that I get popped into an adventure with characters I know. Those of you who know the context of this quote will know what I am talking about. "If I drop a hammer on a planet that has a positive gravity, I need not see the hammer fall to know that it has actually fallen." The characters I KNOW are not part of this book. Can you imagine a critical situation with just minutes to spare and where lives are at risk that Kirk would play a cat-and-mouse game that was irrelevant to the task at hand? Or that Chekov in a critical battle on his first command would begin roll playing the non-Enterprise crew as Spock, Scotty, etc? Highly unbelievable. Silly jokes that don't seem all that relavent (especially about the Clock). There are transitions I also can't quite follow (mind you I still have a 1/4 of the book to go).
Still, that said its an interesting book and I'll continue to read the series. I hope they are a bit better.
Couldn't finish the series........2004-09-05
I bought all six volumes of this series, of which this book is the first, at a used bookstore. I've read several other Star Trek novels and enjoyed them, and thus looked forward to reading the series.
In this first book, I found Diane Carey's writing and characterization to be intensely annoying. She has a habit of using common words in odd ways. She does this frequently, like every other paragraph. It makes you stop reading and say, "why is she using that word?" Perhaps she thinks this makes her prose colorful, but I found it to be an irritating affectation.
The author seems obsessed with Starfleet uniforms. In one scene, Kirk models the new uniform for other Starfleet bigwigs. They applaud, he blushes. I found this scene to be completely contrary to Kirk's character as it's been established in the TV series and films. I don't think Kirk would care one bit about uniforms except to find them a minor annoyance.
In another scene, the Enterprise's chief of security is described as inordinately proud of his appearance in his new uniform, as he "prances" around the bridge. I can't believe the Pocket Books editors let this stuff get by.
The second book in the series, "Belle Terre," was a vast improvement. The story moved quickly and efficiently.
But the third book, "Rough Trails" by L.A. Graf, was dreadful. The main characters spend what seems like the entire book slogging through mud and radioactive dust. This book was so dreary and unpleasant that I gave up on it, and the entire series, halfway through the book. To anyone considering reading this series, I would say, don't bother.
loved every chapter.......2004-01-15
this is a brilliant book,they just keep coming up with good enterprise stories and prove again that there is nothing this crew cannot acomplish,the other side of the coin comes from all the other characters who do not always agree with kirks decision,plenty of room for conflict and action
ST #89 Wagon Train to the Stars - Poor balance and pacing!.......2003-10-26
Star Trek #89 "Wagon Train to the Stars" is the first book in the New Earth series. The concept behind this six book series is Captain Kirk, who, after the events depicted in "Star Trek The Motion Picture" has given up his Admiral's rank to Captain the Enterprise as she leads an "armada" of over sixty thousand would be colonists who are on their way to Belle Terre to begin a new life.
At the core of this concept is a very solid and interesting premise. To see the stalwart hero of Star Trek leading an enormous group of civilians who don't exactly have to bide by the rules of Starfleet on an extraordinarily long trek (pun intended) through space, out of Federation space, into the unknown to settle a tame but raw M (Munshara) class planet and begin a new life. The colonists and their governor, Evan Pardonnet is seeking to not only start a new colony, but they also wish to be almost entirely independent from the Federation.
With that very basic concept laid out, concept creator and author Diane Carey leads off this series of books with "A Wagon Train to the Stars." From the beginning I found this concept to have been an interesting one and was looking forward to getting to these books, despite the generally lackluster reviews and ratings for the majority of the books in this series; wishing to judge for myself upon reading them.
If time devoted to reading a particular book is any indicator of how well a book was written, this novel doesn't score too well because I found that I just couldn't relate to it very well based on its pacing. I've been reading Star Trek fiction for years now and I'm not normally one to critique Star Trek novels too harshly based on continuity and pacing problems generally because the majority of the novels are just entertaining and quick reads that equivocate to a good Star Trek "fix," if you will.
I found "A Wagon Train to the Stars" to be a contradiction to many of Diane Carey's past stories in that at times, it seemed to be disjointed or more or less she would just skip over certain parts that needed to be there, assuming that the reader was still with her. I don't know if this was spawned from her original manuscript or poor editing on the part of the publisher.
I've found that many Star Trek fiction readers have complained of Diane Carey's adding her extensive knowledge of naval terminology into the twenty third and twenty fourth century terminology of Starfleet to be distracting. I don't particularly agree with this point of view; while such terminology is not canon to the series, it just gives her novels a distinct flavor all her own and I've found it to be interesting.
The cover art for this first book in the New Earth series can be counted among the best in the Star Trek fiction genre. It is certainly very rare indeed that this much effort is put into one of these covers.
The premise:
I've already covered the "basic" premise to this first novel in the series. Along with that, Captain Kirk finds himself, leading this armada of colony ships to Belle Terre, but along the way he finds that he must deal with a criminal named Billy Maidenshore who he'd personally arrested not too long before this mission began. Somehow, Maidenshore worked the legal system and didn't stay behind bars very long and has worked his way into to this colony and has sworn to cause as many problems for Captain Kirk and company as he can.
Combining that aspect and the general problems that Captain Kirk finds himself dealing with as the "imposed" leader of this expedition and the sixty thousand plus colonists makes for some interesting but not well executed plot between himself and several different leading characters. He soon finds that he must find a way to earn the trust and confidence of these colonists in order to more efficiently lead this colony on its trip or they will most certainly fail and perish.
The one saving grace for this novel is the extremely well executed conclusion to it, where Diane Carey pulled some of her better writing abilities out of the proverbial hat and put it on the page, so to speak!
In conclusion, being a devout Star Trek fiction reader, I'd recommend this novel as it is the first in the series and gives the basics for the rest of the books, I would have to say that this is not the best novel Diane Carey has put on the shelves, but it is most certainly not the worst in the world of Star Trek fiction. If this is or was the first Diane Carey Star Trek novel you've read or are reading, I implore you not to take the position that this is what all of her novels are like. The good majority of her novels can be categorized as among the best in Star Trek fiction that are completely enjoyable reads. {ssintrepid}
Diane "Betty Sue" Carey Strikes again..........2002-09-19
Mark Twain once described Richard Wagner's music as being "better than it sounds." This sentiment sums up my feelings of Diane Carey's Trek novels.
When one picks up a Star Trek novel by Diane Carey, one may be assured of two comforting elements: 1) Captain Kirk (and, by association, the rest of the TOS crew) will be treated by other characters as the bravest, strongest, noblest, handsomest, simply the ginchiest anyone has ever seen; and 2) Ms. Carey's knowledge and experience of nautical and naval traditions will be lathered over the story at every opportunity in a manner almost of reminiscent of Irving Wallace, who would do extensive research of his subject and then have a character simply mouth paragraph after paragraph of expository paraphrasing, almost completely divorced from the context of the plot. Ms. Carey's last two efforts evince these traits exceptionally well. In "Ship Of The Line," she has Captain Morgan Bateson speak in nineteenth-century sailing lingo, while in "Red Sector," her protagonist has a case of hero-worship on Spock that borders on the homoerotic.
Ms. Carey's latest effort, "Wagon Train To The Stars," is classic Carey. Both the above elements are present in full force. A supporting character -- the captain of a privateer vessel in the aforementioned "wagon train," early on rebels against taking orders from Kirk, saying "there's only one man in a hundred thousand worth following" (or words to that effect). Then, after several amazingly heroic, courageous and daring feats, the privateer places himself fully at Kirk's disposal, repeating his earlier statement.
... She has to show the reader just how heroic, how wonderful the TOS characters are. I can't imagine her Kirk with the humor shown in "The Trouble With Tribbles" or "How Much For Just The Planet?", the self-doubt of "Balance Of Terror" and "Obsession," or the fallability of "Operation -- Annihiliate!" and "Errand Of Mercy."
I'll continue to read the New Earth books. Once again, Carey (this time with John Ordover) have concocted a brilliant plot, and so far it's a pretty good story. It's just that her actual words never quite live up to the story's promise.
